Summary

It’s Tuesday and you know what that means – Rob & Rob are back answering your questions!

Paul’s kicking us off this week, and he’s got a question about buying off-plan property.

Paul’s still new to investing, but he’s already exchanged on two off-plan properties in Manchester city centre that are due to complete in Q2 of 2024 and he’s considering getting a third.

However, he’s now wondering if it’s actually a good time to be buying off-plan.

When the time comes for him to get a mortgage, will interest rates be even higher? And could he actually struggle to get one due to not meeting lending criteria?

Next up, we’ve got a question from Ed.

Ed is also new to investing and currently has a freehold property in London. He’s currently soaking up as much Property Hub content as he can, but he wants to know if Rob & Rob could recommend the best podcast episodes for beginners like himself.

Tune in and find out what the guys had to say.
